I need some suggestions on stocking my 25 gallon tall tank. Tank is done with fishless cycle (which took some time because it just didn't want to get cycled). I'm getting ready in the next week or so to do my 100% WC prior to stocking. In the mean time I've been continuing to dose with ammonia and keep the airstone cranked up to keep things moving.

Here's my setup
Aqueon 25 gal tall
Gravel substrate smooth no rough edges
Fake plants (I have a couple more taller ones to fill in on the back center that my Mom bought us I'll put those in when I do my 100% WC)
Rena 400 pump with a 4 inch long airstone placed UG
Aquaclear 50 no carbon packet just foam with the ceramic ring bag on top
Aqualight Dual T-5 Fixture & lamp
Aqueon 100 watt adjustable Heater
Decorations and placement picked out by my 6 year old Daughter.
Mercury thermometer
So far here's what I've been thinking about.
6 glofish (have to have those as per my Daughter because she loves them)
1 Dwarf Gourami
4 Dwarf Cory's (maybe Panda's)
According to AqAdvisior that would put me at a 70% stocking level.
I'm open to suggestions? I want to be sure to stock with fish that are realitively easy for a beginner to care for as my Daughter is very interested in helping to care for the fish and maintain the tank.
